I am a lighthouse,
Worn by the weather and the waves
I keep my lamp lit,
To warn the sailors on their way
I'll tell a story,
Paint you a picture from my past
I was so happy
But joy in this life seldom lasts
I had a keeper;
He helped me warn the ships at sea
We had grown closer,
Till his joy meant everything to me
And He was to marry,
A girl who shone with beauty and light
And they loved each other,
And with me watched the sunsets into night
